Advocacy Service - Action for Children

Advocacy is a service which helps you to access your rights and express your point of view with the support of a professional advocate.

If you use this service, an advocate will work with you on a one-to-one basis to make sure your thoughts are heard and considered when decisions are being made about your life.

An advocate is independent from your social worker and family.
